SB 1255 Missouri Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Modifies provisions relating to licensing for mobile food units

SB 1255 would require counties to issue licenses that allow mobile food units to operate across all municipalities within that county, overriding stricter local permit requirements. It directly affects mobile food unit operators who currently face varying municipal rules in different cities or towns. The bill establishes that a single county-issued license would be valid throughout the county, eliminating the need for separate municipal permits. However, it explicitly states this does not change existing health and food safety regulations under Chapter 196.
